What does it mean to drill a well alone?

There was a man named Ding in the State of Song. There is no well in his house, so he needs to go out to fetch water. He often sends a man outside to fetch water. When his family dug a well, he told others, "My family got a man digging a well." Someone heard this and said, "The Ding family dug a well and a man." People all over the country told each other that "one person can dig a well", and this news has reached the ears of Song Jun.

When someone was sent to ask Ding about the situation, Ding replied, "Getting a free manpower is not digging a living person in a well." Spreading rumors and hearsay like this is better than hearing nothing.

Everything must be investigated and carefully identified before we can find out the truth. Hearing is empty, seeing is believing. Rumors are often untrue, and only by careful observation, research and reasoning can we get the real answer.

Don't believe in rumors and blindly follow others, otherwise you will make jokes and the truth will be spread beyond recognition.
